Participant Flow
This was an open-label, randomised, 2-way crossover trial with 2 treatments (T and R) and 2 treatment sequences (T\_R and R\_T). Trial drug administrations of the 2 single dose treatments were separated by a washout period of at least 7 days.

Fed 10mg+1000mg Fixed Dose Combination (FDC)/Single (TR)
Subjects received in period 1 a single dose of 10 mg empagliflozin/1000 mg metformin hydrochloride (HCl) extended release (XR) (1 tablet) with 240 mL of water after intake of a high-fat, high-caloric meal, followed in period 2 with a single dose of 10 mg empagliflozin (1 tablet) together with 1000 mg metformin HCl XR (2 tablets) with 240 mL of water after intake of a high-fat, high-caloric meal. 2 treatments separated by a wash-out period of at least 7 days.
